"If you truly wish to find out what is best for the country, you would listen more to
those who oppose you than to those who
try to please you"

Quote of the Day
Isocrates (436-338 BC) was an Athenian orator and rhetorician, but apparently no relation to the philosopher Socrates. This comment of his-- from only 24 centuries ago-- makes a lot of sense to me:
"If you truly wish to find out what is best
for the country, you would listen more to
those who oppose you than to those who
try to please you"
"If you truly wish to find out what is best for the country, you would listen more to
those who oppose you than to those who
try to please you"
